Thank you for your help and advice. I wasn't purposefully vague but rather my situation is somewhat alluding me right now.
In short, we have tested multiple versions of the login taf in which we did everything from separation of the taf itself into various components all the way to substituting the frame-set with a single page taf. The user seems get validated just fine, because we register and update their "last visited on" profile. But the frameset page comes right after and that's when they are thrown back to the login screen. The only way we are able to avoid this is by substituting with a non-frame-set page. In each of the "src URL(s)" we do have the UserReferenceArgument variable passed.
I hope that's more clear than before. Please let me know if you need to know more.
Best, Stephen

Hi Stephen,
Please describe in detail what you mean by "but then are kicked back out
of the site". This is kind of a vague description of the problem, which
will likely lead to some vague answers.
Here's me vague answer:
A trend I'm noticing lately with Home computers over Office ones, is the
rapid adoption of Popup and Cookie blocking add-ons for browsers. And of
course, people don't know how to properly set them.
For the most part, by default these add-ons compensate for "session- cookies" so they don't break Sessions necessarily - but if your code relies on any other kind of cookies, then you're users are in trouble.
I say this, because I notice Office computer "policies" are slower to adopt (or allow install) these kinds of downloadable "free" add-ons.
Lately I've taken to using some of these add-ons myself to make sure my systems keep working. And I noticed two things:
~~ Never rely on standard cookies (session-ccokies are still fine).
~~ Popup window killers are not very smart, and sometimes can't tell the
difference between a user-invoked "window.open" and an event-
invoked "window.open" call.
Hope this helps. Cheers....

We have a site completely built on witango that is accessed via. the
"https" gateway. It is built around multiple frames. When people try to
login, they seem to make it into our validation process, but then are
kicked back out of the site. This happens only on windows machines and
mostly on XP. No clients have problem from their office computers, most
occurrences only happen at home. Is there a security setting in XP or
any of the windows systems that's causing this? Any other common
experiences?
Please advise, Stephen
